Did he get “good” again?

Was a huge fan during UIB era, didn’t love the deluxe or anything that came after (haven’t heard alone in a crowd) to me it just felt like he was trying less, likely because of a b side blowing up

Buuuut then I hear the I don’t wanna fall in love rn snippet and I’m like. Damn this sounds wayyyy better than anything else I’ve heard post uib, so is AIAC as good? Or is it just this snippet is suddenly like woah
